Thank you to everyone who braved Storm Bram and made it to the book launch of Arts Education in Ireland: from Pedagogy to Practice, hosted by Eithne Kennedy and the
@dublincityuniversity Centre for Literacy Policy and Practice.
It was a great night of celebration with music from Luke Cunningham and friends and readings from
@annetannampoetry and Catherine Ann Cullen, with great discussion with arts educators and practitioners from all over Ireland.
Thanks to the publisher
